Method and device for access to non-anchor network energy saving (nes) cell in next generation mobile communication system
Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting higher data transmission rates. Disclosed are a method and a device for supporting access by a terminal to a NES cell, the method comprising the steps of: receiving, in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive mode or an RRC idle mode, system information from a camp-on first cell; acquiring, from the system information, system information about a second cell that does not perform system information transmission; determining, on the basis of threshold value information about the reception signal strength included in the system information about the second cell, whether a condition for access to the second cell is satisfied; and performing, if the condition is satisfied, a random access procedure for the access to the second cell.
